I test ver 0.97 far3 x86 on far 4400. Run plugin, see editor with files and folders, which can copy-move-delete to left or to right. Run plugin via menu to change direction of operations. See two messageboxes:

Incorrect or damaged …\DirSync\DirSyncRus.lng
Message 137 not found

and

Incorrect or damaged …\Utils\DirSync\DirSyncRus.lng
Message 138 not found

Back in 2009 I wanted a synchronization plugin which didn't exist at the time. So I took the sources from FAR 1's Advanced Compare and modified them in several places to get the functionality I wanted. The result was pepak @ DirSync. Maximus5 took pepak @ DirSync, updated it for FAR 2 compatibility and released it as Maximus5 @ DirSync. Eventually he implemented some new features and also provided a MacroLib script for better control of the editor with synchronization info. But for some reason I didn't like his script and rewrote it as macro pepak @ DirSync.

Eventually I decided to reimplement the whole plugin from scratch. The result is what we discuss in this thread.

That's a problem of your configuration. DirSync3 does not perform side-by-side comparison, it calls a program (e.g. WinMerge) to do that. You need to set this program up in plugin options. Then the functionality will work just fine.

WinMerge works fine, but by default "Command used for visual compare" is VC: [what means FAR plugin Visual Compare]. I propose to change default setting in the next release to empty line or "WinMergeU.exe" and notice about it in the readme file.

And one more request. "Command used for visual compare" did not recognize environment variables. Can you solve this? Thanks.

That's definitely not true. DirSync3 does not default to Visual Compare. There isn't even any functionality for calling a plugin for visual comparison. The default command is "winmerge" (without U or .exe).

Environment variables can be arranged, will put it in my TODO list.

Yes, default is "WinMerge". Sorry. Maybe I was trying to use DirSync with VC file compare function [as it does AdvCmp] and forgot about it.
